          We just had drivers side seat repaired! Not a perfect match, but definitely less of an eyesore.
          Drivers side bolsters and seat recovered.

                We spent some time today working on the E30; Time to finish up the trim!





                As you can see from the pictures below, the dash was pretty sun faded. I had read about using tire dressing to fix the dullness, so we gave her 3 treatments of Mother's Back to Black!

                          Don't suppose you're the guy who bought Jordan's Project Lessmeister?

                            Yes, been doing lots of additional work to that car, but my son is too young to help[emoji22]

                              OP it's awesome that you are working on this car with your son, get those mechanical skills instilled in him early!

                                Hey, Thanks! I think the project is progressing nicely. Now that the IS sideskirts are on, and with the H&R Race Springs/Bilstein Sport suspension going on next week. I'd really like to line-up a nice set of 16" wheels & tires. The 14" basketweaves are starting to look a bit too small. Any suggestions?
